Top Review Highlights by Sentiment
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Developers are full stack and work in a small team Learning about the private markets comes with fixing code problems Laid back management and good benefits
Cons
Lots of meetings Product team is too feature heavy
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Coworkers are kind and helpful New Offices Great to get exposure to PE
Cons
Severely underpaid, which leads to understaffing, which leads to current employees being overworked. No adjustments for inflation or cost of living. Push from management and hire ups to be fully on-site while offering no stipends or incentives. Workload comparable to other PE firms but compensation is nowhere near it. Healthcare plan is pretty terrible.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
awesome culture and caring people
Cons
integrate a more consistent work modality
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Generous PTO policy for entry-level analyst positions. The Firm touches multiple aspects of the private markets giving insight across strategies and sectors
Cons
Siloed investment teams: No coordination amongst investment teams when looking at funds vs investments HR is not well-equipped to handle a 500+ person company, as evidenced by recent management exits Work culture is centered around an idea of work-life balance, and pay is subsequently less due to this idea; yet, workflow amount and expectations are still similar to other PE shops Hamilton Lane is not a true PE shop, they do fund of funds, secondaries, and co-investments, so finding and sourcing true PE deals and engaging with companies is the exception not the norm, counter to how the firm positions itself in informational interviews Noticeable difference between pre and post-IPO hiring employees culturally

Pros
People are generally nice and willing to help you out Office space is new Ability to learn a lot about the private markets
Cons
Incredibly low pay, even when accounting for cost of living Never adjusted salaries for inflation, they do not care about keeping employees if it means improving benefits and salaries They do not care about retaining employees, so the people who stay end up with double the work and absolutely no acknowledgement from senior managers (who got in early and get paid in stock options) No perks at the office. They require employees to go to the office but don't offer any sort of travel stipend even though they moved the office far out into the suburbs. No inflation adjustment to adjust for employees
